Podcasts about single barrel

Send us Fan MailWe sit down with Alex Castle and Matt Grove to talk about how Augusta Distillery grows fast without losing its cask strength, unfiltered identity. We dig into the Ohio OHLQ collaboration, why the $59 small batch matters, and how meeting people in stores and at festivals turns shelf bottles into home bar staples. • why Augusta moves from single barrels into three to six barrel small batch while keeping a single barrel mindset • how the Ohio OHLQ custom small batch and Buckner's 13 release land with fans across the state • why cask strength and no dilution stay non-negotiable for the brand • the real work behind barrel picks, blending decisions, and building a balanced flavor profile • why pricing is part of trust, giving new drinkers a lower risk way to try Augusta • what “boots on the ground” tastings change for a brand in a crowded bourbon market • how Augusta's distillery experience keeps evolving, from tours to bottle your own to cocktails Whether you listen to us or you watch us, make sure you leave us good feedback. A $59 bourbon can sound like a compromise until you taste what Augusta Distillery is putting in the bottle. We're joined by master distiller Alex Castle and brand ambassador Matt Grove to unpack the thinking behind Augusta's cask strength small batch, built from six barrels and designed to drink with the same care you'd expect from a single barrel program. No dilution, unfiltered, and largely made from 7 to 9 year old bourbon, it's positioned as a real entry point for people who have stared at premium Buckner's bottles and thought, “I need to taste this before I bet that kind of money.”We also get into Augusta's Ohio push with OHLQ and what it's like taking the show on the road, hitting tastings across Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati at some truly weird hours, then finding lines of fans already waiting. If you know Ohio, you know the love for weeded bourbon runs deep, so we talk about the reception for Augusta's weeded single barrel and why face to face tastings still matter in a world of constant releases and crowded shelves.Along the way we swap festival stories, explain why barrel picking and blending is harder than it looks, and tease what Augusta is planning for Kentucky Bourbon Festival. If you're hunting bottles, planning a bourbon tourism trip, or just want a cask strength pour that overdelivers for the price, this conversation gives you the context and the practical tips.

Send us Fan MailAmerica turns 250 this 4th of July, and we're celebrating with Evan Williams' brand new America250 commemorative lineup — the 1783 Small Batch and the seriously strong Single Barrel, bottled at 117.76 proof and dipped in blue wax to match the Statue of Liberty on the label.In this episode, we taste both bottles side by side, break down what makes each one worth (or not worth) the price tag, and dig into the real story behind the name on the label. Evan Williams is marketed as "Kentucky's first distiller" — but the history is way murkier than the bottle wants you to believe. We get into what historians actually say about the man, the legend, and how a 1957 marketing decision turned into one of the best-selling bourbon brands in the world.Bottles featured:

Sometimes The Boys come across some special bottles that by themselves bring a good story, a lot of flavor, and a lot of NUANCE.  And when they QuickSip™ them together, it's even more special.  This rye whiskey from Ross & Squibb Distillery is a Single Barrel from the ABV Barrel Shop in Arnold, MO with a ton of fruit flavors and great complexities. The tequila from Cambio Tequila represents the first of their Cellar Series - a limited release program with unique expressions. Stay for the stories and laugh with the lads. You might not find these exact bottles, but you can certainly find a whiskey, a tequila, a friend, maybe a pressed fruit bowl memory and a moment to sit back and sip along and Make It A Happy Friday!™ Salud!

This week on Chill Filtered, Cole and Bryan open up a bottle sent over by their YouTube pals from the Hello Again Whiskey Friends channel: a Silver Springs Sweet Rye 8-Year Single Barrel pick. Before diving into the glass, the boys discuss Cole's high-stakes, upcoming mission to track down a bottle of Pappy Van Winkle 23-Year. Will the whiskey gods smile upon him, or is he heading for heartbreak? Cole also shares a look into the history behind the Silver Springs brand, breaking down its roots and legacy. On Whiskey World News, Bryan reads about an incredibly eccentric new release out of Islay. Bruichladdich has officially launched Yellow Submarine III (also known as the Yellow Submarine [Reclassified]), continuing their legendary, tongue-in-cheek "Whisky of Mass Distinction" series inspired by the actual Ministry of Defence submersible found off their coast. And for “What Whiskey Would You Choose?”, the boys debate a massive retail price check on a legendary bottle name: Would you pull the trigger on the new Wild Turkey Gold Foil Edition if you saw it on the shelf for $400 plus tax? A friend's rye pick, the ultimate Pappy hunt, and a high-dollar Turkey debate—pour a dramatic dram and join us!

This week on The Whiskey Trip Podcast, Big Chief returns to Arvada, Colorado, for his third visit with Patrick Miller, founder and distiller of Talnua Distillery and a pioneer of American Single Pot Still Whiskey.   Patrick shares updates on Talnua's continued growth and his mission to bring this historic Irish whiskey style into the American whiskey landscape while embracing Colorado craftsmanship and innovation.   On the first half of the show, the guys sip Talnua's Bourbon Cask & Stave Series Bottled-in-Bond American Single Pot Still Whiskey, aged a minimum of four years in ex-bourbon casks with charred American white oak staves, followed by their American White Oak Cask Bottled-in-Bond expression, aged four years in first-fill charred American white oak casks. Both are bottled at 100 proof and showcase the rich, grain-forward character that defines Talnua.   On the second half, they pour the Sherry Cask Bottled-in-Bond American Single Pot Still Whiskey before diving into the 2026 Olde Saint's Keep Special Release, a unique collaboration finished in six different casks sourced from fellow Colorado distilleries. The show closes with Talnua's newest Single Barrel selection for Bluegrass Lounge and Hazel's Beverage World, bottled at a robust 116.7 proof and aged in a former Elijah Craig barrel.   From tradition to innovation, this episode highlights why Talnua remains one of the most unique and respected craft distilleries in America.   Pour a glass and Take the Ride with Big Chief. Cheers.

Jim Shannon and Todd Ritter welcome back two familiar faces to the corner of Rick House in Frankfort: Diane Strong, the driving force behind the Bourbon on the Banks Festival, and Bo Cumberland, the festival's videographer and distillery film maker. Together they settle in for a relaxed preview of the 2026 Bourbon on the Banks Festival — now in its seventh year — touching on new events, expanded programming, sold-out tickets, and the evolution of the single barrel program that has become one of the festival's most celebrated features. On the Tasting Mat: - James E. Pepper 1776 Single Barrel Bourbon (Bourbon on the Banks 2025 Pick): A barrel selected the prior year by Jim, Todd, and Bo at James E. Pepper Distillery in Lexington. Clocking in at 109.4 proof, this single barrel pours with rich aromas of cherry cola, leather, and a subtle barrel funk. The palate delivers a lush butterscotch sweetness — evoking Werther's Original hard candies — balanced by a satisfying peppery bite on the mid-palate. The finish is long, warm, and refuses to fade. A confidently balanced cask-strength pick available at the festival for around $60–65. *(00:01:54)* - Jeptha Creed Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Single Barrel Reserve (Bourbon on the Banks 2025 Pick): A four-grain bourbon — built on the distillery's heirloom Bloody Butcher corn alongside wheat, malted barley, and rye — bottled at 119.52 proof from Warehouse B after seven years and one month of aging. The nose opens with intriguing complexity, revealing sweet cinnamon, a whisper of root beer, and a hint of fresh strawberry. The palate is full-powered and richly flavored, landing on buttered cinnamon pancakes with a wave of deep caramel. A distinctive expression that showcases just how compelling Jeptha Creed's long-aged releases have become. *(00:20:05)* On the Tasting Mat: Beyond the pours, the crew digs deep into everything Bourbon on the Banks 2026 has to offer: a sold-out Bourbon Bell River Tour with Ingram Distillery, the returning Whiskey Thief Kickoff Party (barrel burning included), a free family-friendly Friday night on the lawn with circus performers and a mermaid, the Culinary Bourbon Geek class with Peggy Noe Stevens now pushed to 2 p.m., a Friday VIP Reception and Auction sponsored by Larkin Bourbon, a Saturday morning brunch at Cypress and Oak, expanded single barrel picks from eleven distilleries including Angel's Envy, Pursuit Spirits, Jeptha Creed, Jackson Purchase, Boondocks, and others, and an after-party headlined by Creekwater with bluegrass openers Hancock and Schaus. Twilight tickets for the October 3rd main event are still available at bourbononthebanks.org. Be sure to visit thebourbonroad.com

Take Your Pick Liquors is a DC based retailer that specializes in both modern, vintage, and single barrel bourbons. For this episode, we taste and review two of their more recent picks: Subtle Spirts 10 Year MGP Bourbon and an 11 1/2 Year Double Barreled Altschuler Bourbon. We've talked about Subtle Spirits before, but we don't know much about A. Altschuler (Woodwork Collective Brand).

This week on Chill Filtered, Cole and Bryan dive into an unexpected treat: a surprise sample sent directly from Thirteenth Colony Distilleries. They are cracking open the latest 2026 Hazmat Double Oaked Single Barrel Bourbon. Before digging into the high-proof pour, the boys catch up on recent whiskey opportunities in their respective cities and break down the literal and figurative anatomy of a hazmat pour—and exactly what it takes to survive one. On Whiskey World News, Bryan tackles the business side of the industry, discussing the potential reasons behind why the heavily rumored Brown-Forman sale is apparently not going through. And for “What Whiskey Would You Choose?”, the boys indulge in a little fantasy: What is a whiskey you have never actually tasted, but in your mind, you just know it would be the best whiskey ever? Surprise high-proof bourbon, major industry corporate drama, and a bit of whiskey daydreaming—pour a glass and settle in!

We start with race-day energy, porch weather, and the kind of relaxed hang where one good drink can carry you through a long event. Then we turn it into a practical cocktail walkthrough: a bigger whiskey pour than the usual old fashioned, burnt sugar simple syrup for a deep toasted sweetness, cherry bitters and chocolate bitters for a dessert-like edge, plus those “dirty” cocktail cherries that get even better after they sit in the glass.The technique is the point. We talk ice, stirring, and why chilling first makes the smoke sit on top like a visible layer instead of disappearing right away. We also share simple smoker tips that help you avoid scorching chips or blasting them out of the holder. If you like smoked cocktails, bourbon cocktails, or old fashioned variations, you will leave with a repeatable home setup you can actually pull off on a weeknight.Then we shift from mixology into a full bourbon review and tasting notes: Elijah Craig 15 Year Single Barrel at 108 proof. We score it across nose, body, taste, and finish, and we get specific about what shows up in the glass: cherry, caramel, vanilla, apple, cinnamon, and that crucial oak balance that keeps everything bright instead of turning bitter. Finally, we compare it directly to Elijah Craig 18 and talk about the bigger question every bourbon fan runs into: when does “more age” stop improving the whiskey?If you enjoy honest bourbon podcasts, single barrel breakdowns, and the kind of conversation that feels like sharing a pour with friends, subscribe, share this with a whiskey buddy, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

Along with our guest Matt Lysin from Cleveland On The Rocks, we talk through the moments that stick: the questions fans ask when they finally get face time with the person behind the bourbon, the stories people share about starting with 1792, and why Ohio might be one of the loudest bourbon states in the country.  We also get technical in a way that actually helps you drink smarter. Ross explains how he thinks about blending for consistency, why “degree of maturation” can matter more than a simple age number, and how open air rickhouses and warehouse placement shape flavor. We dig into the role of 1792 Small Batch as the flagship expression, plus how releases like Bottled In Bond, Full Proof, Single Barrel, and the 1792 12 Year come together with a bigger team than most people realize.  After the call, we bring it back to the glass with a live Barrel Bottle Breakdown of 1792 Sweet Wheat.

If you've followed our podcast, you know how much we love River Roots in Cleveland, Ohio. For this short, we taste and review a recent River Roots single barrel selection that was done by the Sprayberry Bottle Shop in Marietta, Georgia. The whiskey they selected is an American Single Malt that was distilled in California. With a unique mashbill of 88% malted barley and 12% malted rye, this whiskey is 7 year 10 months old and comes in at a massive 145.16 proof. If you've listened closely, you know that we typically love malt whiskeys. However, will this one be an exception to that rule? You'll have to listen to find out. One thing is for sure, this might be the most unique whiskey that we've tasted this year and quite possibly in the history of the podcast. --------------------------SocialsIG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupkyFB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupkyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themashupkyJoin our community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheMashUpBourbonPodcastPartnership(s)Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUPMusic: All the Fixings by Zachariah HickmanThank you so much for listening!

This week on Chill Filtered, Cole and Bryan get their hands on a long-awaited release from Heaven Hill: an Elijah Craig 15-Year Single Barrel. After years of fans asking for more age-stated options, the boys finally see if this 15-year pour lives up to the hype. Before cracking the seal, the conversation takes a turn into the struggles of caffeine withdrawal, the hidden grip of sugar, and why Heaven Hill made a brilliant move by officially adding a 15-year expression back into the mix. On Whiskey World News, Bryan shares the news that has the whole community buzzing: Buffalo Trace has officially released the follow-up to the Single Oak Project. Given their deep dive into the original project, the boys are absolutely stoked to see what's next. And for “What Whiskey Would You Choose?”, the boys lean into the spirit of innovation: What is one of your favorite "experiments" in the whiskey world? Big age statements, big news, and a little bit of healthy living (or trying to) — grab a pour and join us.

For this show, The Boys pair up a bottle you might find in the Chicago Suburbs, with a bottle you might only find in Texas or California… for now. The Heaven Hill 7 Year Bottled In Bond Single Barrel is a collaboration with the Bourbon Belly Hospitality Group and the Wheaton Whisky Club. The Loco Tequila Blanco is a fairly limited, fairly luxury brand from the well known NOM 1123. When they sip them, you will clearly see how Matt loves everything Heaven Hill, and how Drew loves a quality made Blanco tequila. When they QuickSip™ them, you will want to go find yourself a couple of single barrel expressions, or treat yourself to a couple of special bottles and Make It A Happy Friday!™     Fourche Creek Podcast: Fourche Creek Podcast Joby Holland   Joby Holland's YouTube: Fourche Creek youtube.com

This week on The Whiskey Trip, Big Chief rolls into the rhythm, heat, and soul of New Orleans with Kevin Alker, owner and distiller of Old Alker Distillery. This one hits different… it's got history in its bones, music in its step, and whiskey that carries a family legacy back to life. Long before Old Alker was filling bottles, the Alker name was moving wood… barrel staves flowing through New Orleans, supplying some of the biggest names in American whiskey. Now that same family blood is back in the game, and you can feel it in every pour. They open the show with Old Alker's Small Batch Blend at 100 proof. This is a front porch in the spring kind of whiskey… buttery, nutty, smooth as a slow jazz tune drifting through the French Quarter. Easy sipping, but full of character. As the first half winds down, Big Chief and Kevin lean into a 7-year-old Single Barrel, also at 100 proof. This one dances a little. Bright summer fruits, a touch of citrus, then it settles into that sweet caramel popcorn ball note with a hint of toffee that lingers like the last note of a trumpet on Bourbon Street. Then it's time to turn it up. In the second half, they pour a 7-year-old Cask Strength Single Barrel at 114 proof. This pour is a straight-up baby candy bar in a glass… rich chocolate and caramel leading the charge, layered with flavor from front to back. It builds with hints of orange citrus spice that cut through the sweetness just enough to keep you coming back for another sip. And it's damn good to see another craft distillery rising in New Orleans… adding to the story of a city that knows whiskey, respects it, and knows how to bring it to life with soul. This episode isn't just about whiskey. It's about heritage, resilience, and bringing something back to life with purpose… the kind of story New Orleans was built on. So grab a glass, turn up the music, and Take the Ride with Big Chief. Cheers 

This week I'm joined by my friend and first time guest Hector to discuss a film from the legendary Chuck Norris (Rest in Peace). We're reviewing Lone Wolf McQuade. We pair this one with a 131 proof Old Forester Single Barrel Rye and a Tomahawk ribeye steak.

On this episode of Eat Drink Smoke Happy Hour, Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy pour a bold Indiana bourbon and break down what all those whiskey labels actually mean. They dive into Fenwick’s Single Barrel Bourbon 5-Year-Old Cask Strength, talk through the difference between cask strength, barrel strength, full proof, and single barrel, and then discover a bottle that changes dramatically once a little water or ice gets involved. At 118.3 proof, this one brings big caramel, vanilla, and a serious kick — but also one of the most surprising transformations they’ve had in years. The guys also revisit the Aganorsa Leaf La Validación Habano Toro, talk about where it lands in the strength and flavor profile, and make the case for keeping notes on what you smoke, what you drink, and how a cigar changes from the first third to the final third. Along the way, they get into the Weber grill-brush recall, the dangers of wire bristles, how to clean your grill the right way, and why people will spend serious money on a grill but cheap out on taking care of it. There’s also a detour into McDonald’s gimmicks, a bizarre CEO sandwich moment, and Tony’s behind-the-scenes story from attending the State of the Union, complete with security, checked phones, confiscated cigars, and a view of Congress that turned out to be better than the speech itself. It’s bourbon, cigars, grills, McDonald’s, politics without the politics, and the kind of wandering conversation that makes Eat Drink Smoke Happy Hour exactly what it’s supposed to be.

Send a textWe share how Whiskey Thief keeps its farm soul while growing in Louisville and nationwide through direct-to-consumer shipping. We taste a nine-year rye, dig into pot still craft, and map the rising whiskey hub shaping the city's scene.• why grow and stay the same is the goal• how the urban tasting room mirrors the farm vibe• what pot distilling demands from a skilled team• where collaboration beats constant instruction• how maturation, storage, and weather shape flavor• why DTC unlocks access in 46 states• what legal compliance and taxes mean for shipping• how small-batch blending preserves identity• where Louisville's whiskey neighborhood is booming• what we taste in the nine-year ryeListen, like, leave good feedback and subscribeWhiskeythief.comThe first thing you notice is the feel. Gravel under tires at the farm, guitars on the wall in Louisville, and that instant sense you've walked into a place that treats whiskey like a craft and a community. We sat down with owner-operator Walter Zausch, director of distilling Lisa Wicker, head of experiences Amy, and Philip from Kentucky Bourbon Direct to unpack how Whiskey Thief scales without losing its single barrel soul—and why fans across 46 states can finally get bottles shipped legally to their door.We start where their story lives: pot stills, sharp palates, and a team that can make precise cuts without babysitting. Lisa explains how collaboration speeds quality, from early peach brandy iterations to doubling yields while tightening flavor. Then we go deeper into maturation: the moment when the barrel becomes the hero around eight to ten years, how ricked versus palletized storage bends outcomes, and why Kentucky's wild winter swings can turn vanilla, mint, and dry cocoa into surprising notes in a nine-year rye. If you love rye whiskey, this tasting will light up your curiosity—minty lift, caramel undertow, and a clean finish at 121 proof.Access is the other revolution. Philip breaks down the direct-to-consumer engine that handles compliance, taxes, and shipping so craft producers can focus on making great juice. The result is real: Whiskey Thief ships to 46 states, fans no longer leave empty-handed, and brands gain data and margins that keep the lights on without surrendering independence. With Louisville's whiskey hub booming—Heaven's Door, Chicken Cock, WhistlePig, and more within walking distance—the city offers a concentrated tour of American whiskey culture while the farm preserves the barrel-thieving experience you can't get anywhere else.We close with the future: small, intentional blends that mirror the five-barrel magic of on-site tastings, a boutique approach that respects terroir, weather, and the patience great spirits demand.

  This week on Chill Filtered, Cole and Bryan pour a Green River Barrel Proof Wheated Bourbon pick, clocking in at a healthy 124.2 proof. It's bold, it's wheated, and it's ready for a proper breakdown.   Before they sip, the conversation drifts into the wild world of salespeople (the good, the bad, and the persistent) and the history behind the Green River Distilling Company, one of Kentucky's quieter comeback stories.   On Whiskey World News, Bryan shares updates on Kirin potentially selling Four Roses and details about the new A. Smith Bowman Cask Strength lottery — two headlines that definitely have whiskey fans paying attention.   And for “What Whiskey Would You Choose?”, the boys keep it cocktail-focused: What kind of bitters are your go-to for an Old Fashioned?   High proof, industry shakeups, and a little bitters debate to round it out — grab a glass and hang with us.

Send us a textA single barrel Tennessee Whiskey with a blue label. We crack open Jack Daniels Single Barrel Heritage Barrel and follow the trail doubling Jack Daniel's standard toasting time to that unmistakable Tennessee smoothness, asking why this release hits sweeter on the tongue, flares pepper through the mid-palate, and settles into a tobacco echo that begs for a square of chocolate or a quiet cigar. Brian from Bottle2Bond joins us for a pour that turns skeptics into believers, spotlighting the difference toasted oak and maple charcoal filtering make without losing the Jack character fans love.We start with the signature banana-versus-not debate and move into the mechanics that shape it: non-chill filtration for texture, a lower entry proof for balance, and a quick, flare char that preserves the caramelized toast. Brian shares firsthand experience with multiple Jack Daniel's single barrels—mostly stellar, but not all of them—reminding us that single barrel means there will be small variations, but most of the time they are worth chasing. We also map the release details, pricing around $70, and why this line is meant to stay on shelves rather than vanish into hype.Beyond the glass, we dive into whiskey culture. Distillery tours that surprise, barrel picks that educate, and the Tennessee Squire Association—invite-only, rooted in heritage—show how community anchors the pour. Brian brings a maker's angle too, walking us through his Bottle2Bond travel whiskey glass built for real-world bottle shares: compact, tough, and discreetly measured so you can taste smarter. We wrap with our SIP method—shareability, influence, price and end with a confident recommendation for anyone curious about toasted oak, Tennessee tradition, and a finish that lingers with purpose.Pour a glass, press play, and tell us what you taste—banana, graham cracker, pepper, tobacco, or something we missed. If you enjoy the show, follow, share it with a whiskey friend, and leave a quick review so more listeners can find their next great pour.
